Abstract: A method of improving multi-type barcode recognition efficiency using continuous sampling is applicable to a barcode recognition apparatus. According to the method, each barcode type is given with a corresponding weight value, and a total weight threshold is set in the barcode recognition apparatus. A barcode pattern is sampled with a limited number of times, and each sampled image sample is only compared with a part of the supported barcode types. When the comparison matches, a weight value is assigned to the matched barcode type, and the weight value is accumulated to acquire a total weight value of the matched barcode type. When comparison of all image samples is finished, the barcode type with the total weight value reaching the total weight threshold is the barcode type of the barcode pattern, and a recognition result of the barcode pattern is output according to the barcode type.
